PUBG Online Romance of the CenturyCh4 - Because… too noob ah.

Edited by Divetus and Noks

His words didn’t help, and the barrage still continued to be hot and noisy. Fy932I

The cellphone next to his hand lit up, and a WeChat notification for a message popped up.

Lu Xiuhe: Damnit, bro, that XKTVlaoshu is definitely using an aimbot!

Lu Xiuhe was one of Yu Yan’s rare real-life friends.

As a true internet-addicted youngster, Yu Yan had way more online friends than real-life friends. He could talk more freely across the computer screen, but in private contact with people, he always seemed a little introverted. Added onto the fact that he had dropped out of school early, he had even less chances of coming into contact with people in real life. jqmwGh

Lu Xiuhe he met because he used to work in an Internet cafe, and Lu Xiuhe was the cafe owner’s son. At that time, PUBG hadn’t been released, so they played another shooting game together. Lu Xiuhe saw that he was very skillful, so, he pestered him continuously to queue and climb up the ranks together. As they kept playing, the two of them became good friends.

Sometimes, he queued with Lu Xiuhe to play, so he didn’t hide anything about his livestream business from him.

He let go of his mouse and sighed, “Just a moment, everyone. I’ll take a break for two minutes, and then I’ll continue to queue after drinking some water.”

He had practiced for several hours before the start of the stream, and now he felt really tired.

After that, he picked up his cellphone and replied: I know.

Lu Xiuhe: You know, and you don’t riddle him with bullets?

Yu Yan: Worried about someone trying to move me to the beat of their music.

Although he didn’t watch livestreams often, it wasn’t like he had never seen any. There were a large number of anchors now, and from time to time, anchors would meet in-game. Previously, there had been a host who had reported another host for using a bot and was then chased by the other host’s fans until they DDOSed his stream. This issue even made it to Weibo’s hot topics. ayOwvz

Although he was just a small anchor and didn’t have that much influence, it was better to avoid trouble.

Lu Xiuhe: ?

Lu Xiuhe: Bro, if you’re scared, I have to look down on you.

Yu Yan: Oh, are we playing? XAQF T

Lu Xiuhe: Playing, daddy, but I’m outside right now. Can we do it tomorrow? I’ll be yours all day tomorrow.

Yu Yan: OK.

Lu Xiuhe: By the way, you can also ask for gifts ah. Gifts can increase points and upgrades.

StarTV had up to 30 levels for anchors. The higher the anchor level, the more anchor functions that could be unlocked. For example, reaching level 3 meant viewer lotteries could be carried out, level 15 meant the number of room moderators increased, and level 30 meant an anchor could apply for the big recommended position on the livestream platform’s homepage.

Lu Xiuhe always liked to watch livestreams, so his understanding of these aspects was much more than that of a new anchor.

After replying okay, Yu Yan looked at the follower count, which was displayed next to his profile picture. There were actually 800 followers.

His livestream’s viewer count was only 1600 the last time he had looked at it, so this meant that half of them were actually willing to follow him.

“Thank you everyone who followed me. At present, my livestreaming time is from 11:30 a.m. to after 11:30 p.m. Of course, we will have to take a break during mealtimes.” He said while reading the barrage, “It’s very competitive? It’s okay ba, I’m new, I have to work harder.” pAYQJr

“If you think that I play pretty well, you can send me some free gifts. When I get to level 3, I can play with some stream viewers.”

The viewers got 10 daily free gifts for signing into the platform. Although the amount of points from the free gifts weren’t as much as that of the paid gifts, they were still very useful in the early stages.

As soon as he said that, a lot of free gifts appeared.

[I really want to play games with the anchor! Serving up ten little flames!!] YIpqzt

[Don’t dally around ah, quickly play the game.]

[That little Jiejie just applied to be your friend, quickly click accept!!!]

The white-skinned man stood in the game interface, and the voice of the little Jiejie sounded again.

“No.1, let’s add each other as friends to play together next time ah. I can play pretty well, I was just so enraged by that fool this time.”

Yu Yan laughed, “Alright, what’s your ID?” 0koCMJ

“FOCOPINK.”

After adding each other as friends, the little Jiejie hurriedly said goodbye and left, but by now, there was a big group of people in the barrage begging Yu Yan to add them as a friend as well.

Yu Yan picked out a few nice IDs and added them. Soon, he received invitations to play, but he refused all of them and started a squad match on his own. “It’s a little late now, so I’ll play two more matches before signing off. I’ll be back at 11:30 precisely, tomorrow morning.”

[So fast?? I just watched two matches…] z6nJI8

[Play for awhile longer ah, I just got hooked.]

[Anchor, turn on the camera, turn on the camera, turn on the camera!]

[I’ll give you ten more little flames, if you stream a little longer.]

Yu Yan took a look at his points. He had just mentioned it once, and he had already reached anchor level 2, and was also halfway to level 3. y6zMBE

He compromised, “Okay ba, since everyone gave me so many gifts, I’ll play a little longer…”

[1 sent you a little star]

‘A little star’ was a paid gift, and though it didn’t sound very dignified, it cost 500 yuan, and was the first paid gift Yu Yan received.

“Thank you 1 for the gift.” Yu Yan looked again at the username, “Ah… Boss, I remember you. You were my first livestream viewer.” OBI9GP

Yi Chen paused while holding the mouse.

He just thought the anchor was interesting, so, when he heard that he wanted gifts, he easily sent one. Since he had a special account, he didn’t even have to pay for it. Unexpectedly, he was directly called out.

In the stream, the man was still speaking, “Boss, since we’ve been brought together by fate, do you want to play a game? How about I take you along for a match?”

Yi Chen didn’t play games, but when he had glanced at it just now, he had thought that the game was very interesting. It was a shooting game, every man’s favorite. qEQw6U

It was also no wonder why this game’s popularity could rise rapidly in just a few months. From the report submitted by his subordinates, the PUBG section was now StarTV’s most viewed section.

[1: No need.]

Seeing the other party refuse, Yu Yan didn’t insist and quickly opened the map to mark a city to jump to.

After a whole day of livestreaming, it was midnight by the time he had taken a bath and gotten into bed.

Yu Yan laid on his stomach on the bed, casually picked up his cellphone from the bedside table, and clicked on StarTV’s livestream platform.

He thought for a moment, got up and felt around in the cabinet for the documents that he had just printed out.

Today, Administrator 03 had sent the rules and precautions sponsored anchors must follow, which also included the room numbers and Live IDs of the five participating anchors. C4RdgM

He had been in a hurry before, so he had only glanced at it when he had received it. Now, when he looked through it carefully, his suspicions were immediately confirmed.

Next to his ID, there was a familiar name: XKTVlaoshu.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

It was the little aimbotter from earlier today.

When he had seen the ID, he had thought it looked familiar, but since he was livestreaming at that time, he couldn’t confirm it. aHSjLs

Every player hated aimbotters, and Yu Yan was no exception. Although he hadn’t said anything during the livestream, he had still felt very disgusted inside.

He thought about it and typed in XKTVlaoshu’s room number on his cellphone.

The room was still livestreaming. The title of the room was: [New anchor laoshu, accepting all kinds of teases and insults! There’s a cash bonus draw every hour!]

Yu Yan glanced at the viewer count and couldn’t help curling his lips. IAB3Jq

The viewer count was at a good 14,000.

Lotteries would definitely attract viewers, but it was a pity that his wallet couldn’t support him using such an extravagant method.

In order to concentrate solely on livestreaming, he had worked as an accompanying player for a long time before he could save up enough for the five figure deposit. He had also been worried that livestreaming wouldn’t earn any money and so had left another path for himself.

“It’s almost two o’clock. When I’m done playing, I’ll do another draw for everyone. The draw is for 500 yuan ha, and as long as you’re in the barrage, you’re in!” j32i9D

The man’s voice was a little shrill, and he spoke with some kind of an accent.

At the bottom right of the game interface was a camera. A somewhat plump man with a flat head sat in front of the camera. Visible behind him were many small PUBG souvenirs.

Laoshu was playing a squad match, and there were only 12 people left in the final circle.

Yu Yan, fighting against his drowsiness, decided to watch to the end of the game. onsq3V

At first, it looked like normal gameplay. He could see that this laoshu really had some strength, otherwise he couldn’t have been able to meet the requirements of the anchor sponsorship program.

In the end though, Yu Yan noticed something wrong when the number of survivors fell to 5.

——This laoshu, as soon as he opened a scope, he would be able to find someone.

It was very difficult to find people in the final circle. Everyone would try to hide their tracks so as to not expose their positions and be caught by the other surviving players. ty4ISZ

But whenever laoshu opened a scope, he could not only see where the person was, but even see where their head was. This happened twice in a row.

Before he could even think about how it happened, the two heads had been put into laoshu’s kill count, and a large number of 6666 flew out of the barrage.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

[The anchor is really awesome, winning the match 6 times in one night, powerful!]

[Is this really a new anchor? He’s more powerful than those old anchors, scatter, scatter! Following now, when I want to watch him again, I can just click in directly~] Xer46G

[laoshu ah, he’s been in Asia’s top ten, very powerful. It’s also said that he’s a good friend of banana oh!]

banana was a famous StarTV anchor, who was always floating on the front page of the PUBG section all year round. Yu Yan had already seen it several times just today.

Yu Yan frowned. He didn’t know if he was seeing things wrong, but he kept thinking that this barrage and the colorful way of bragging about laoshu’s fighting prowess conveyed something very strange.

Like a water army. eftT1Z

In between his doubts, the other side had opened a scope for the third time, and upon catching sight of a helmet once again, had shot it quickly. Suddenly, at this time, there was a gunshot. laoshu’s game character was shot, and half of his health immediately vanished.

Without hesitation, laoshu stood up, changed guns, and opened a scope. The red laserpoint accurately aimed at the other person’s head, several shots were fired, and then another headshot was made!

Headshot bot!

Aimbotter! drCXu3

Yu Yan couldn’t help but curse in his heart.

Not even mentioning the fact that his person was wearing a camoflauge armor—his position was also in laoshu’s blind spot on the right. Even if he had heard the gunshot that had injured him, laoshu would have never been able to aim at the other person’s head in one go!

After successfully eating the chicken, laoshu hehed, “I’m tired of eating chicken all the time. It’s boring, so boring. Opening up a prize ah. Old rules, people who are in the barrage can participate in the lottery, if I pull someone else it won’t count ha.” IedgXS

As soon as he said that, the barrage filled with praise.

One of the comments in the barrage looked very out of place.

[Is the anchor running an aimbot ba? Getting headshots four times in a row during the last few circles? Isn’t this obvious? Today, when I watched the livestream of other anchors, I saw that you headshotted three people with an M4 in the final circle. It’s too fake…]

“Which anchor did you watch live ah?” laoshu looked at the barrage and said in a disdainful voice, “It’s not that I’m too fake, it’s that the host you’re watching is too noob ba? Come watch me later, I guarantee you’ll have a good time.” eUlzjp

[Also a new anchor, called yanxyan]

“Oh, him ah… I know him. He said I’m using an aimbot?” laoshu raised his thick eyebrows.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

He had seen that person’s name on the Asian server’s ranking list and also on the sponsored anchor contract.

He grinned so widely that his facial features all wrinkled together. “How do you think he fell from first place in the Asian rankings to such a low rank? Because… too noob ah.” VP5jbX

[hahahahahaha, reasonable and with evidence!]

[Who is yanxyan ah? Haven’t heard of them. As soon as they’re killed, they say someone was running an aimbot, very funny.]

[laoshu is mighty and powerful!]

The mocked party yawned in bed, slowly shut down the stream, and wormed into his blankets. cW0Otp

Calmly, in his heart, he added the XKTVlaoshu ID onto his revenge list.

Juurensha: laoshu, just you wait.

Divi: Can’t wait to see the revenge. I hate aimbotters!! lFkw9f
